I haven't blogged lately because I've been involved in other projects. Primarily videos. Some of the ones I've made are: the Wild Turkey Federation Museum, Healing Waters, Chip Clip. Yaroslavl, Russian Tourist Trap, and others. Now I'm busy making a video about my great grandfather. Why? I don't know...maybe because I think he was an interesting character. But there is a lot of problems telling a story about a man you never met and about whom there little visual information about. Video is a visual medium. Therein lies the problem. So, I must use period video from archival sources to tell the story along with still images. It's a challenge.
I have been doing some storytelling as well. See my facebook fan page Tony Young Storyteller. (http://www.facebook.com/TonyYoungStoryteller) A told at a couple of extend car facilities, the North Charleston Harvest Festival and goose Creek City Hall. As a member of the Backporch Storytellers of Charleston I produced an audio CD and a video of the production of that CD.
